The Electro-Harmonix Hell Melter Advanced Distortion Pedal is a revival of a beloved distortion circuit with added versatility. This analog high-gain effect takes you from mild to heavy-metal tones instantly. In addition to the iconic in-your-face distortion sound, the new version offers expanded clipping options and an active AEQ section. It also features a boosted internal voltage for more headroom, less compression, and heightened attack.
The extended control set includes independent Gain and Level controls, as well as a dry level for blending your input signal and enhancing the low end, especially when used with a bass or blending other distorted tones. A convenient noise-gate control lets you eliminate unwanted hum by adjusting the noise floor. It effectively mutes the output whenever the input falls below the set threshold. The guitar pedal comes with a 9V power supply to get you started.
